Oh, thrice cream, promise me
you'll never go away.

Go away!

Chowder, do you think
we could go ten minutes

without another
thrice-cream break?

Ten minutes from now?


Why do I ask?

Now, are you ready to get some
work done?

[Chowder thinking]
I like thrice cream.


[Mung Daal]
'Chowder!'

Focus, boy. Focus on my words.

I am focused.

Let's see if we can't
squeeze in some squash..

...and find some space
for some spice.

Make room for the mushroom.

[gasps]
Thrice cre-e-e-e-e-am!

Upsy-Daisy.

Here's your mushroom.

But we already..

Not done.

We've got to do
something about

this kid's crazy
thrice-cream obsession!

- R-radda.
- 'Oh, honey!'

[gasps]
Run, man, run!

[Chowder]
'What are we making?'

Something that will hopefully
cure your little obsession.

[Chowder]
What is it?

Thrice cream.

Thrice cre-e-e-e-am!

I get to eat that?

Not without a cherry on top.

Did somebody say Larry on top?

No, Larry.

You really are
made out of thrice cream!

No one should be able to

[Chowder groaning]

I don't feel so..

[belches loudly]

Oh, dear!

What's the matter?

I don't know.

All of a sudden..

[munching]

...my tummy..

[munching]

...hurting.

Dear me!

You do look a little
under the weather.

Yummy good!

You see, Chowder

food is like life

and sometimes
we bite off more life

than we can chew.

Next thing you know, you're
barfing life all over the place

'the beds, the walls,
priceless carpet.'

And who do you think has to
clean up all that life?

- Shnitzel?
- That's right.

[Shnitzel]
'Aw, radda!'

Yes, life can be a real mess,
so keep a bucket nearby.

I'm going to bed now.

Yes, go to bed, Chowder.

I'm serious about the bucket!

Would you like some

Ohhh!

Scoop-in-mouth time!

Oh, I think Chowder has had

enough scoop-in-mouth
for a while.

[gags]

No scoop?

[sniffles]

[sobbing]
Thrice cream man bad!

No.
You are great, really!

I'm sorry, thrice cream man.

I still like you.

I just can't be near you

or smell you or
look at you, is all.

Don't worry. We'll find you
some other nice kid

who would love
to eat thrice cream.

No!

Scoop-in-mouth

You said so!

- Did I?
- Scoop-in-mouth!

Chowder eat scoop-in-mouth

No! Bad kiddie!

Oh, hi, Truffles!
How was your trip to the store?

Oh, it's fine.
Yep, yeah, yes, just fine.

Except for the part where my
giant tuchus smashed the city!

Your what did who, now?

Honey, tell me the truth

have I become a little large
in the barge?

Chowder, take cover.

Um..

No?

- Is that a question?
- No.

- So I put on weight?
- I didn't say that.

I need to go on a diet?

- I didn't say that.
- Come on. Out with it!

Am I f-f-f-f-f-fat?

Fat? Yeah.

[sobbing]
So...it's true.

I knew, I knew it!

[wailing]

Chowder, life lesson number one

never tell a woman she's fat.

[sobs]
If anyone needs me,
which I doubt

because I'm so
hideously disgusting

I'll be in bed, hanging out
with my only friends

peanut and butter.

Mmm. Ahh, yes.

So..

I hate you!

I love you.
I hate you!

I love you.

Aaaaah!

I'm gonna go cry myself
to sleep.

Well, we got off easier
than I expected.

You!
You did this to me!

What are you
talking about?

Are you or are you not
the chef here?

Indeed, I am.

whack

My hat!

You make this food
that makes me fat!

You get some sort of sick kick
out of keeping me fluffy?

Woman, you crazy!

My cooking does
not make anyone fat!

The rest of us here are
doing just fine.

We are the picture of health.

[gasping]

Bagel.

I rest my case.

Everyone on diet.

I don't make diet food.

Well, then, it looks like

you're going to have to
use your imagination

master chef!

Oooooooh!

And just to make things
even more interesting

we will have a contest to see
who loses the most weight.

What does the winner get?

The winner gets, um

to win, and that is enough!

I want to win the contest!

Don't encourage her.

I will win!

Not you, me! Me!

Me! Me! Me! Me! Me! Me! Me! Me!

Me! Me! Me!

Thank you, dear.

Me!

Diet? Hmph.

I'm quite proud of
my girlish figure, thank you.

I've caught you staring,
Shnitzel.

What are we gonna do, Mung?

What are we gonna do?

Well, I do have
one idea, but..

Eugggh!

The stuff is nasty.

What is it? What is it?

Well, it's a food
called "flibber-flabber"

but you have to eat a ton
of it to lose any weight.

This is so exciting!

We get to eat
tons of flibber-flabber!

[slurping]

Do you even know
what flibber-flabber is?

No, but I'm guessing

it's the most wonderful food
in the world.

I love you forever, Chowder.

I love you, too,
flibber-flabber.

The poor deluded kid.

I guess it's time to show him
the truth.

[Mung Daal]
'This is a
flibbeus-flabbeus plant.'

It's even better than I'd hoped.

He actually likes this crud.

Radda?

No. This is great.

In trying to keep up
with Chowder

Truffles will totally burn out
on flibber-flabber!

Then, she'll have to call off
this stupid diet!

Hooray for crazy schemes!

Hooray!

gonna beat you, Truffles.

You'd better eat faster.

This kid is a bottomless pit.

You ready to give up
on this stupid diet yet, woman?

Never!

[munching]

That's it!

I can't eat this slop.

And it's your fault!

'You need to make it
taste better.'

But this stuff
is straight nasty.

And I thought
I married a chef..

...not a crybaby!

- Ooh!
- Stop doing that.

Okay, now I've had enough.

You can't eat this stuff,
you can't cook it

and that woman is
too stubborn to give up.

Radda radda radda.

No!

You can't go on vacation
for a month.

There's got to be
a way to end this.

[Chowder]
'Mung Daal, I don't think
this diet is working.'

My clothes feel way too tight.

I need my emergency
big-boy shirt.

[rumbles]

Mnh!

[yelps]

Much better.

Oh!

A bigger shirt makes
you feel less fat?

That gives me an idea!

sploosh

I've got another idea.

Dear diary,
I have lost one pound.

Hooray for me!

Hey, honey.

I just thought
I'd let you know

we've run out
of flibber-flabber.

[gasps]
No! Not now!

I'm so close to
my target weight.

Don't worry.
I'm gonna send Chowder out.

I'm sure he won't eat it
all before he gets back.

Unacceptable!

I must go with him to make sure
he doesn't eat it!

I mean, get the wrong order.

[Truffles]
'Vanilla pudding, butterscotch
pudding, strawberry pudding'

you are none of these.

Tapioca, this is you!

Have fun, you two!

Burn some calories.

And remember, Chowder,
take as long as you can.

Alright, Shnitzel!

The coast is clear!

[vehicle beeping]

[Mung Daal]
'Now that they're gone,
we got to rebuild this place'

'twice as big to trick
Truffles into thinking'

'that she's lost weight.'

So let's get building.

Get that camera out of my face!

Hey! Not so fast!

Wait for me!

[tools whirring]

Why do these strange dots keep
following us?

Run, Chowder!

[Mung Daal]
'Oops! Shnitzel!'

Good save.

Oh, honey! Come back!

I found some more
flibber-flabber in the fridge.

Oh, thank goodness!

Phew! I thought those dots
were gonna get us for sure.

Hmm.

Something seems...different.

You know, honeybunch, I think
this diet is really working.

You look like you've lost
a lot of weight.

- Really?
- Oh, yeah.

- Right, Shnitzel?
- Radda.

Huh. You know what?

I do feel a little smaller.

But I thought yesterday
that you said

the diet wasn't working

and Truffles looks
fatter than ever.

Be quiet.
Be quiet. Be quiet!

Everyone,
I have an announcement.

The contest is now over.

And I won!

So there's no need to eat
any more flibber-flabber.

[both cheer]

Aw.

I feel so thin and small
and foxy.

Just wait
till the ladies see me!

Now that that's over

let's get this place back
to normal.

[hair dryers whirring]

[Mung Daal]
'Wait! Stop drying!'

'That's enough!'

'Stop!'

That's it!
We're going back on the diet!

[both groan]

Yay!

[grunting]

- What are you doing?
- I'm trying to grow a beard.

And why, might I ask,
are you trying to do that?

Because you said we're making
barbecued beef blisket

and only real men can handle
making a meaty dish like that.

And you think
you're man enough?

I'm a hunk-a-hunk-a-he-man.

I just need the beard
to prove it.

Careful, Chowder.
You push too hard

your eyes might pop out.

No, I glued them in.

[gasps]

Ooh!
Nice beard, my boy.

Now for some chest hair.
